Some Saturday Silly Sassiness

As my sixth batch of wash is drying.  For the record the other five have been folded and put away.  I am going to write.  Because Lee is preparing for his talk tomorrow and if I turned on the TV I would probably distract him. 

Today we stayed home all day.  Well me and the kids did.  Lee went to our neighbor's house to help with building a box, two boxes actually.  He is hoping to get some money out of the help but I don't think it will be much. 

Spring cleaning is still very much in full swing. We are cleaning out closets and I need to go through the toy box as well.    Victoria informed me today that she doesn't have any t-shirts thanks to growing and cleaning out her dresser..  So next week I think I am going to have to do some shopping for summer clothes.  With going to the beach this year we want all the kids to have two swimming suits and at this point they each have one.  Last year we wait too long to buy a swimming suit for Victoria and I struggled to find an appropriate one.  Part of the issue is that Lee and I disagree on what is appropriate and what isn't.  He is far more conservative then I am. So even though it is only March I want to get the swimming suits soon. 

This week on my list of things to do is to get some stuff on Craiglist.  I have never posted before so this will be a first time.  We are also going to give some stuff to a friend to sell.  He is a stay at home dad and has way more time then we do to deal with stuff like that.

Sometimes the things which should be so simpler really aren't.  We are planning a trip in May to see some family.  But it seems like every I turn around there is some conflict.  The weekend we were going to go up is dance pictures. Pinewood derby and Soccer Cup  Now that we have picked the dates then a family member told me that those dates "that seems odd".  Plus at this rate it may just be me and the kids because if Lee doesn't work he doesn't get paid.

Random Thoughts

I sometimes wonder where to draw the line in this whole blogging thing.  I could make us look like the "perfect" family or I could deal with all of our disappointment and make everybody think that we quite possible have the worse life ever.  Or maybe there is a middle ground somewhere that I have yet to find in this blog.  Today was a rough day.  Don't get me wrong I am so excited that everybody around me is having babies.  But for some reason today I was caught up in the losses all over again.  I am wondering when it stops.  Maybe it never does.  Maybe it will be a life time of wondering what if I would have gone full term.  Several people have asked when (or if) we are going to have another baby.  I am not sure.  Sometimes that answer is yes and sometimes it is no.  But one thing is for certain it isn't right now.  Really I don't need to have a ton of kids to fill some void.  I love my two kids and if that is all ...

It has been a week

Here is how the week went Monday: OUr 25th anniversary. I was sick. We went and tried a Cuban restrant not as good as the food we had in Miami but it was good. We love trying new local places. It ended in tears. I won't go into all the details but I am relaizing that this is not the marriage I want. I am open about what I need and we will go from there. Luke started wrestling. Tuesday: End of the year banquent for Luke and Andrew. Luke recevied the "Most Improved" Awared. Here is the thing about that. His coach talked about how during summer practice he wouldn't even run 100 yeards. He would just stop. At some point after the first meet it clicked and he just ran and did what he needed to do. He went up adn accepted the award with such confidence. Wednesday: Both boys had activities. Andrew had stayed home from school due to not felling wel. My guess is he just needed a rest. He was feeling up for going and making pizzas at the Bishop's hous...

Heavy Week

This week has been so heavy. I had a client pass away and I never got the closure I needed/wanted. Client was not my typical client. He was different and sassy and I looked forward to seeing him every week. Then we went to a presentation. When I tried to explain how dishonest the presenter was I felt ignored. We are pretty anti MLM anyway but not wanting to know is weird to me. There are big changes coming and I am not ready for all the changes. Might be good might be a diaster. Time will tell. Mom's surgery is scheduled in about four weeks. I feel as though she moved it for us. Which is for the best for everybody but still taking on guilt that is not mine to own. Listening to the news about the LDS church shooting/fire in Michigan has been so triggering. I hate that I feel all the all the feeings. How I can envision the people there and the screaming kids and .....on and on. I wonder what changes will come to the church now that prophet died. I hope ther...
